ABSTRACT:
A transient discriminate harmonics generator which receives an audio input signal and produces an output signal containing harmonics of the input signal. The output signal is amplitude shaped as a function of the input signal's time and amplitude envelope. The present invention transient discriminate harmonics generator generally comprises a control circuit for determining a control parameter, and a harmonics generating circuit regulated by the control circuit for producing an output signal containing harmonics of an input signal, where the transient discriminate harmonics generator first generates a relatively high level of harmonics at an initial occurrence of the input signal, then incrementally reduces the level of harmonics generated during a time period determined by the control parameter following the initial occurrence of the input signal, and finally produces a relatively low level of harmonics after the end of the time period
